Exclamation Calling for support!!! Help!!!

Help!!! Boss just brought in 2 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts!!! I haven't cheated in over 2 weeks and the smell of these hot ones are about to make me weak! What can I do to be strong? I know that I am losing slowly (hypthyroid). My mouth is telling me "only one little bitty bite" and my head is saying "STEP AWAY FROM THE DONUTS!!"

Support, Support!!!!

I know exactly what your saying. I was shopping at BJ wholesale yesterday and saw a big display of those crispy cream donuts. MAN was I going HMMMMMMM.Then my best friend pulled my arm and said,"UHH UHHH, don't even think about it woman." I just had to laugh.Stay strong and never lose focus on what's more important.

Quick, get drinking the water!! Maybe it will fill you up! IF you brought your own snacks to work, now would be a good time to eat them!

Step...Away...From...The...Krispy...Kremes. lol I know exactly how you feel. My son and DH love them and I will sometimes buy them and it's sooo hard not to take one. But I just grab my pork rinds or something snacky to cut the craving. Good luck!!

Just remember when you see those donuts. Nothing looks as good as being slim! Good luck to you!

Thanks everyone! I'm stepping away from the donuts. They were kind enough to put them at the other end of the filing cabinets so that the smell will not drive me bonkers!

I'm repeating...WATER IS MY FRIEND, DONUTS ARE MY ENEMY, WATER IS MY FRIEND, DONUTS ARE MY ENEMY. Hey, I'm starting to believe it!! I'm stronger than any Krispy Kreme donut!! No matter what the filling may be!! I'll be the bigger one and ...WALK AWAY!!! I can do this, I will do this, I am doing this!!

Hugs
Ellie

HAHA! I burst out laughing when I read your post "plastered to your arse" You guys are hilarous. =) I'm really trying to do that with all my "tall, skinny fiances" treats he has laying around. I just imagine them on my butt or my thighs and they dont look so good anymore! =)
Thanks for the vison! hehe
P.S.- E4Ellie- Congrads on not giving in! It will be SO worth it in the long run!

There is a krispy kreme donut sale going on in the school right now. I passed it this morning.

With my nasty sickness, being hopped up on cold meds and such I wasn't even tempted. If you like I could come cough on you then you wouldn't be tempted by food either? (joking)
